Potions and Poisons is a leisurely walk through the dwarf oaks and coastal scrub above the back bay, looking at the chemicals plants produce to fend off whatever wants to eat them and to lure the pollinators and seed carriers they need. Plan on 1 to 1.5 miles over about 1.5 to 2 hours at an easy pace. Wear comfortable shoes and layers in case of fog or wind.
